Human Rights & Justice Group Int'l (Justice Group) is an independent, non-governmental and not-for-profit voluntary initiative which was established in 1999 by Nigerians from different professional, cultural and social backgrounds to enhance knowledge, respect and observance of human rights, and to encourage exchange of information and experiences for the betterment of the citizenry through the instrumentality of law, education, enlightenment and humanitarianism.
Justice Group membership is drawn from a rich blend of activists and other professionals working together on a shared commitment to justice, the rule of law and human dignity. The idea of the group was to build awareness about those rights as well as investigate and advocate various means for securing their implementation.

We use mobile phone effectively in our e-learning programme to inform participants of the latest development in our training programs. We equally use it in our in human rights violation reporting. The organisation has a hot-line mobile number which victims of human rights abuse use to notify the organisation of the plight as well as seeking assistance for legal aid. On weekly basis we receive up to 50 to 80 distress calls from members of the public for assistance.
Further, in our eLearning courses, we use mobile phones to inform participants of course dates, time for online discussion and for e-Mobile conferencing.
Mobile phone has served us greatly as a new emerging technology for this generation.
